One of my favourite Netflix comedies — Never Have I Ever — returned last week and went straight to No. 1 on the streaming services most-watched shows list in Canada.
The fourth and final season of the Mindy Kalling-produced high school sitcom, which stars Mississauga, Ont. actress Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, had over 15 million views in its first few days. I especially love how tennis ace John McEnroe has been served up as the narrator of this series — they perfect comedic use of his naturally sardonic voice.
Never Have I Ever knocked the somewhat less inspired Arnold Schwarzenegger series FUBAR down to third most-watched in Canada. The shot in Toronto action adventure series feature Jay Baruchel as Arnie’s character’s potential son-in-law. Scott Thompson from the Kids in the Hall adds a spark as Arnie’s unable to retire CIA agent character’s shrink.
